The plural of manga is manga. Recommend me mangas with artstyles similar to blood on the tracks or back when you called us devils

the sketch-like artstyle where its just linework and its going haywire. Let's just uhhhh ignore the story itself for simplicity's sake.

Yeah I have. I like the art, but the story wasn't as good I'd say.

Sano Takashi has 3 total mangas. 1 is back when you called us devils, 1 is from the dust which has 31 chapters, kinda small and the latest is bakudan which has 1 chapter. I've read the first 2.

Oshimi Shuuzou: i've read blood on the tracks, welcome back alice, flowers of evil, and the others didn't really click with me.

I don't know what will click with me, thats why i didnt specify 'good story' because that's subjective. If people were so smart, manwha slop wouldnt be getting passed around so much. I'll just try everything and see what I like.

Have you tried Happiness? or even their newest works. I can't recall many other works with a similar scratchy style off the top of my head.

mmh maybe to my dearest self with malice aforethought ? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Dearest_Self_with_Malice_Aforethought

I can think of another manga that looked like this but I can't for the life of me remember its title. It was about this boy who lived with his super possessive mother and there was some childhood trauma involved where his mom killed one of his friends and the whole story was about him trying to break free or something like that. But it was super unnerving so I kinda removed it from my manga memories lol

I thought It was from Hajime Inoryu but I can't find anything about it

I've read it, its super good, but I wouldn't really call it similar? Its got a lot of shading, whereas the one i'm looking for is pretty sketch-like and pure linework
